You may want to also check out Apache.

Here is a good comparison of licenses.

It puts too much pressure on Helpdesk to provide the support needed when you don't have a common path.

They are also working on a Go version called Dendrite - https://github.com/matrix-org/dendrite

The Matrix team is doing a LOT of cool stuff. :)

Yes, I'm doing a custom react client integration. AA has to prepare for black swan events from every angle and this is a perfect example of one.

When you have 100,000+ employees, it's not trivial to just switch up communication platforms.

We've already had conversations and I reached out personally.

I'm testing Element and Matrix at American Airlines.

There are big players with clout that take issue to instability such as this. How can I rely on my company using Element when it gets pulled? Not cool Google...

To the element team, reach out to me if you can't get the support you are looking for.

I've been using the Zettelkasten method for a few months now and I could never go back to the way I was taking notes before. I picked "The Archive" for the app and have a Git repo located on OneDrive. It just works and there is no guessing how things get organized.

I can keep my notes not only synced, but I also get version controlled markdown files. You can setup VSCode to accomplish the same tasks through extensions, but it's not 100% perfect.

The Archive is great software, but they also have a fantastic community that's researching this subject.

Just thinking about this on a universal scale is mind blowing. Perhaps this is how dimensions are produced? Everything is just swirling around something else until if finally collapses in on itself.

What are all these galaxies coiling around?...

Edit: Kind of like a musical note. Hmm.
